What is Paleo? Learn the Basics & Beyond

Our comprehensive guide to eating like our paleolithic ancestors.

Here in the test kitchen, we’re always looking for new challenges: recipes and techniques that will test our skills and make us better, more knowledgeable cooks. And although we don’t usually concern ourselves with diets in the traditional sense of the word, there was something about the paleo diet that intrigued us—the focus on whole foods, the emphasis on cutting out processed junk foods, and the importance of cooking at home. The widespread popularity of paleo made us think that this was more than just a trend—there seemed to be room for the test kitchen to contribute and add value. This site distills more than a year of research and will function as your guide to successful paleo cooking in the home kitchen.
